In my question "How do I get -[NSString sizeWithFont:forWidth:lineBreakMode:] to work?", I learned that -[NSString sizeWithFont:constrainedToSize:lineBreakMode:] was actually what I needed. The documentation for -[NSString sizeWithFont:forWidth:lineBreakMode:] states explains it doesn't actually wrap the text to additional lines. So ho...
On a Mac, I have a txt file with two columns, one being an autoincrement in an sqlite table: , "mytext1" , "mytext2" , "mytext3" When I try to import this file, I get a datatype mismatch error: .separator "," .import mytextfile.txt mytable How should the txt file be structured so that it uses the autoincrement? Also, how do I ente...
I am building a class that handles NSURLConnection requests. To allow other classes to use this class, I would like to allow the main class to call a delegate when connectionDidFinishLoading is fired. I've looked through lots of documentation, but I can't find anything that gives any clear examples, and the code that I have doesn't cal...

Hey, all - I'm having issues with the iphone sdk. I created a key pair and can encrypt and decrypt with it with no problems. Now I need to get the public key in X.509 format to pass to a Java-based web service. SecKeychainItemExport is available in the standard Cocoa libraries, but this function apparently isn't available through the ...
Hi I want a button in my navbar which lets the user refresh the contents of a tableview. The tableview is already populated and once the user presses the refresh button, I want to show a UIActivityIndicator while I fetch the items to be displayed on the table. I tried putting a [indicator startAnimating] before calling the method to ge...

As the question states, I would mainly like to know whether or not my code is running in the simulator, but would also be interested in knowing the specific iphone version that is running or being simulated. EDIT: I added the word 'programmatically' to the question name. The point of my question is to be able to dynamically include / ex...
I'm writing an iPhone app. It's already been published, but I would like to add a feature where it's version number is displayed. I'd rather not have to do this manually with each version I release.. Is there a way in objective C to find out what the version is of my app? ...
What is the preferred method for implementing such geometric distortions as pinch/fisheye/etc. using the iPhone SDK? I know that the Core Image library for OSX has all these types of filters built in, but not for the iPhone SDK. I can create a displacement map at a specific location and radius given the original source bitmap data, but...
It seems that Apple has so far gone the furthest of any mobile platform in creating a good all-around developer ecosystem (SDK, app distribution, monetization, etc). However, reading the comments from previous SO questions on mobile development (e.g. this and this), certain criticisms seem to pop up, such as the following: Objective-C,...
I already know how to use the CLLocationManager, so I could do it the hard way, with delegates and all that. But I'd like to have a convenience method that just gets the current location, once, and blocks until it gets the result. ...
Silly question: Does Apple provide specific guidelines for contacting servers via http vs https? Also, what data is considered to require https (ie password, geopoint, bank data, etc.) Is there a concrete guideline from Apple on this? More specifically, does anyone know exactly how Apple checks/verifies that an application should or shou...
I'm still new to the API and I wanted to ask: Can you send a text message programmatically? Can you access the users contact list programmatically? I'm thinking no. I haven't seen anything about text messaging in the API, and I figure the sandboxing that the iPhone does keeps you away from the phones contact list. Thanks everyone. ...
I'm writing an iPhone app, and I would like to use a 3rd party library for part of its functionality. I intend on selling it through the App Store and my code will not be open sourced. Which open source licenses allow this? ...
I have been over the iPhone Programming Guide several times regarding the behavior of when the event methods are called in an app. From what the guide says: touchesBegan is called when a finger first touches the screen. touchesMoved is called when a finger on the screen moves. touchesEnded is called when a finger lifts off the screen....
I'm considering how to make my iPhone application as "bullet proof" as possible. Right now, I'm thinking about how the app will respond to the user hitting the home button at a critical point in the application's processing. What exactly happens? Are any more instructions executed in the application's threads? When applicationWillTer...

Hi, So far I have a UITableView, it works properly and all. My problem is when going into "editing" mode, apparently the cells are not changing at all, and the red sign (delete control) only shows up when I drag the cell out of the tableview (meaning the iphone reloads the cell again, and it is here when it detects that the cell was "f...
